Ive got a beddy grey x whippet as my first dog and he's been realy hard work, very head strong. Maybe just this perticular dog as i havent seen any others. Hes about 14month now and hes now fetchin a rabbit skin dummy and coming back off lead when theres nothing else around but has took alot of hard work and an electric collar for the recall. Think i would opt for a dog with a bit of collie for a first dog but thats just my opinion.

i have only ever had 2 one that i trained and she was very bidable and was easy enough to train the other i got of a 57yr old who was hanging up his boots and the dog was already trained and was a very bidable dog aswell and always listened to his commands just posting what my experiences of them were

my first lurcher was a saluki grey x collie grey and although stubborn she turned out an excellent bitch and was very well known and had run hares on the fens and took 4 out of 5 would have been 5 but she fell and done her ligaments
